Thank you, Sandytechy20 for your efforts.  The trip to the appropriate team was quite unsuccessful.  I am going to close this case by accepting the solution, although there is no solution short of buying a new printer.

It's me again.

 

My HPHP Envy 4512 is goind bonkers.  It does not print color.

 

In my previous round, someone gave me a set of instructions to uninstall the printer and delete all references to tnhe printer in the system.  Only then might I be able to install the printer in a fully workable manner.''

 

I did and it still acting screwy.

 

I need those instructions again.  This time I am going to do both computers.

 

May you be able to point me in the right direction?
